<u>Complete Question:</u>

Adam calculates his annual commission, y, using the model y = 0.28 x, where x represents his total sales for the year. What is the meaning of the x-intercept in the model?

A) the x-intercept represents Adam's base pay

B) the x-intercept represents the highest salary Adam can earn

C) the x-intercept represents Adam's total sales when he earned no commission

D) the x-intercept represents Adam's commission pay when he had zero total sales

<u>Correct Answer:</u>

"the x-intercept represents Adam's total sales when he earned no commission" is the meaning of the x-intercept in the model

option C

Here ,basically equation of straight line is given as  y = 0.28 x . x-intercept is when y=0 i.e.

⇒ y=0.28x

⇒ 0=0.28x

⇒ x=0

Therefore , x-intercept in the model means when annual is commission is zero , as he haven't worked till now . So, correct option C).

emmasim [6.3K]
Let's say the original price was "x", thus "x" is the 100%, and we know that 15 is 80% of that, thus

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;amount&\%\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;x&100\\&#10;15&80&#10;\end{array}\cfrac{x}{15}=\cfrac{100}{80}\implies x=\cfrac{1500}{80}

Find the percent of change. Round to the nearest percent.
katovenus [111]

Answer:

<u> -54.5%</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

You will have to use this formula

\frac{new value-oldvalue}{oldvalue}

When substituted in you have \frac{30-66}{66}

30-66=-36

-36/66= -0.54 (54 repeating)

Then you have to convert this into a percentage, -54.54(repeating) percent

To the nearest hundredth you would round down to<u> -54.5%</u>.

It is a Decrease because it is negatated.
